I was thinking we could do something on the Saturday afternoon - 4pm onwards as that is the better time in regards to light levels,

We can do outside Kevin Rudd's workplace or this other place that i've found on google maps here

Your call guys.:(

Sounds like a great idea, I think we should definitely organise it.

I know that, ie the top is one layer, as is the bottom or they are both the same layer, and overlayed on each photo, even so I'm just saying they are good subject matter and good pics, so are yours.

I'm not trying to pick on Mark's banners, they are quite good... What I'm saying is that the banner needs to be simple and striking. If there is too much going on it wont draw the spectators eye.

i reckon get rid of a pic of a car and just have a big banner wiht skylines act or something

i have a feeling if everyone is at a car show, and theres a bunch of the same cars, people will know we are a car club. problem is with a picture of a cartin car, u exclude others and i dont reckon it's diverse enough. by doing a artsy banner, with jsut text, i think that will grab peoples attention as it will be simple yet striking, then you can let the cars talk for themselves !!!!!

but thats what i think, and i haven't put any money in or anything so feel free to ignore what i think :(

You can get some nice shots there at night. see thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ph...html&st=200

If we wanted a banner that didnt have a car picture in it but still represented the club and location, we could have something like this... (see attachment).

Why cant I link pictures from my Photobucket account? - Every time I try I get the message "Sorry, dynamic pages in the tags are not allowed... :huh:

I like the idea of getting Parl House in the shot more than Telstra Tower and if you travel to Auto Salon etc there is nooo mistaking where you're from. I had no idea what Telstra Tower was before I moved here.

i know it's a commodore, but what about here as a location, or even without a car n just add in some text ????

ive got the day of tomoz so ill be out and about tonight getting some shots so ill add em in tomoz with some text etc...

but yeah, , location? (sorry for the commo haha )

Picture046-1.jpg

edit, did a quick edit with some text....ill try get a similar photo tonight and do a good copy, basically no car, none of the carpark, so ill try get in a bit closer to the water, and ill broaden out the image a bit, tone done the brightness so theres more detail. im thinking if u were going to do an image like this though, you would want a car if it isn't only going to be text.

btw mick, my photobucket works, so yeah???

and yes...im bored haha

Edited by Gus-

maybe haha, at the moment he's the only mate who bothers to come out on photoshoots with me, other than that it's all landscape stuff.

it's actually a pretty nice example of a calais, super six....still no skyline though.

i duno haha im bored so thought id throw in some more examples of something for the banner

Not really.

But sice we're in the banner thread, you could use a sexy car like this!! :wub:

and that's exactly the time of day I want to use that location for.

Also i'd be bringing my big bag of tricks with me so I can do shots similar to this....

(obviously I won't be getting the whole car in the shot)

correct me if I'm wrong but that 1st pic (the 32) was probably taken very late at night or very early, theres a restaurant nearby, so can't get there as soon as it gets dark. Something to keep in mind.

ahh, you dont need to go near the resturant to get into the tunnel, u enter up the other end not the lake side end. meaning none of the public servents / politicians will need to worry about they're lovely dinner being ruined.

i reckon the tunnell is a bit over done though....if we are game we could try for the museum...me and some mates got up there once real close to the doors for about 45 mins before any security turn up...weren't happy bout it though

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
